Anyhow, thanks for any efforts made on my behalf.


The questions is, is the fuse blown?

Consider that a "blown" fuse is NOT a failed fuse. The fuse has properly performed its safety function by destroying itself. A good technician's response to finding a blown fuse is to question why the fuse was forced to operate. If you persist in simply replacing fuses, then you move into the diagnostic phase called "fuse testing."

That the search term is highlighted in color when you call the cached page, often makes the cached page more useful than the original.

Sometimes it's marked on the PCB.
